Note, we had hoped to transfer all this stuff with an rsync and then fix it up after we had transfered to the new HW. However, that wasn't possible. We cannot take the configuration “as-is” and just use it - so we can consider fixing up the new system as we move stuff over.
Things that could be done include: partition on several partitions, use LVM, use RAID, use apache2 instead of apache1, have a firewall, use django to update the web site instead of editing php pages and using svn.
There are differing opinions on whether we should do these things. So, in the interest of moving forward, I'm deciding:
| step | description | who | done |
| 1 | check and partition 36 GB disks HdPrep | wardi | yes |
| 2 | transfer 9 GB disk to 36 GB disk and make bootable (linux 2.6) | wardi, rjr | yes |
| 3 | put other 36 GB disk in second slot and boot to first disk (putting mirror of site on 2nd disk is low priority) | rjr | yes |
| 4 | configure all the above packages and test | see above | yes |
| 5 | go live | rgb && ??? yes | |
| 6 | install some kind of tracker trac, oclug trac | wardi | |
| 7 | firewall, backups, logwatch | ??? | no |
| 8 | think about getting rid of ippl | ??? | no |
| 9 | upgrade web site (apache2, django?, get rid of php, other improvements) | wardi, ??? | yes (new site, phpwiki still there) |
| 10 | apt-get dist-upgrade | ??? | no |
| 11 | set up VirtualBox/UML | ??? | no |
| 12 | system monitoring (zabbix, munin, nagios, ???) | ??? | no |
| 13 | syslog-ng | ??? | no |
| 14 | prep the other two 36 GB hard drives | ??? | no |
Ideas for next time we do an install/migration: tripwire (would be a lot easier if we knew ahead of time which packages are going to be installed), logwatch/logcheck, bugzilla or RequestTracker, chkrootkit
